I love the white wheels has, sorry I couldnt make it guys, Im sure I passed that black dynamique near hinckley around 7.

OUCH how did that happen? Yeah its 432 but when I went to a bodyshop there are about 6 different shades of it from different batches of cars made so its quite hard to match.

Heres mine:

Yes there should be Kenny, the problem is with the metal and plastic safety catches. The plastic ones because they are weak and the metal ones because the safety catch seizes up and gets stuck in the bonnet-open position. This effects ALL the mk2 Clios but mainly the ph1s as they are older. The...

I have a 2000 Clio and when you release the bonnet catch in the car the bonnet flips up and u can easily just lift it, there is no 2nd safety catch that you have to lift so you can fully open it like on my mums 2001 ph2, however Im sure it didnt used to. It was probably the way the Renault...

I would have thought the newer dci 1.9 1870cc engines must be based on the old 1870cc diesel engines that was in the mk2ph1 clios, there was 2 versions of that: a 65hp version and the rare 80hp engine in the si spec cars. Surely the new engines in the megane and laguna are uprated from these...

Welcome to Cliosport, what are the specs on the ka?

I will scan the pages in and send them to you on sunday when I get a chance, blue4ever have you got any pics of your car yet, you get colourcoding and Turninis?

Yeah they all are on ph2s. Most if not all ph1 mk2s are cable including the 172.

Its normally stamped on the front of the caliper, I doubt its lucas as they were mainly fitted the mk2ph1s and valvers, they will be Bosch or Bendix. You could always take the old pad off the car take it to Halfords and compare them with the pads on the shelf.

PM'd

I found the exact same on my Clio after 78,000 miles, a good excuse to put some -40mm apex springs on. :approve:

You can get mini ones from halfords that fit which are about £4 but they dont look as nice.

If you have been driving around with it leaking grease it will eventually do damage. When mine went there was so much grease it turned my alloy wheel brown so was very noticable, i found a crack in the gaitor and managed to seal it with superglue until i got round to getting a new gaitor. I...

It tells you in the Haynes manual, depends how mechanically minded you are, check the gaitors for any cracks or holes or if they have come loose, see if the metal straps holding them on are secure. If its started to squeak the oil/grease inside the gaitors could have already come out (how long...

Nope I think nearly all Peugeots are 4X108 wheel fitment with very low offsets, the wheels wont even bolt onto the Clio.

Your CV gaitor might have come loose or have a split in it causing grease to seep out when at speed. Check the inside of the wheels for grease aswel. Its a common thing on the Clios to go after a while.

Mines had 3 but 1 was Renault and 1 was my dad.

It is 4 on all Clios made betwen 2000 and 2005 including some mk2ph1s when they were upgraded with seatbelt pretensioners, passenger airbag etc.

They dont fit becasue the dash is a different shape, you will need some mk2mph1 door cards with the switches and then the motors and probably a relay fitted somewhere.

Heres an old pic of mine with 15s, without lowering Save up and lower it 40mm and get some speedlines:

Its a nice car, even 15s it would look too high, most clios this shape had way too high suspension. You can fit front optic lights and ph2 rear lights but you need to change the wiring round. Glad to see another 5 door owner in the club.

Ooops im getting mixed up! the cup i followed has number plate *** 172. I passed A20 CUP a few days ago on the a447.

I followed him yestarday, has a big exhaust and illegal font no plate, he lives up near the Moonrise Indian restaurant I think. Small world lol.

lol what are you like Giles, your transformation is almost complete. Have you got anymore plans for her?

Im near Hinckley and drive to Nuneaton weekly. Ive seen the black 182 with the sport badge on the front quite regularly. I saw a silver 172mk1 in Barwell today that looked quite low, anyone?

I had that on my Clio it is really simple to change the wires round.

So start the engine, loosen screws to release air then tighten them when fluid flows?

Cheers for help joshydee, do you mean the coolant bleed screws, I seem to remember there being 2. Can I get rid of the air without having to bleed the whole system?

Was in stop/start traffic yesterday at roadworks and noticed my temp gauge was 3/4 way up the dial and the car nearly stalled, Ive noticed its done it before when I got held up on the M1 a couple of weeks ago. In normal diriving its fine and reaches just under half way up the dial. The cooling...
